The Cyclocross Workout Of The Day for Monday, 9.21.15. “You’re tired, aren’t you?”
Howdy folks,
Well, that was a long darn weekend! I don’t know about you, but I’m pretty beat.
And I didn’t do a damn thing yesterday other than sit on the couch and try to recover from my ill-advised race exploits on Saturday.
If you raced yesterday, or both days this past weekend?
You definitely need to take it EASY today.
Maybe cue up the Cross Vegas race on your monitor, in front of your trainer…
…and go for a nice, relaxing…
Recovery Spin –
– Get on your bike. Roll out into the street – or into your living room if you’re on the turbo watching the vid – and just spin around for an hour. Or more. Or less. Whatever it takes.
– Really small gear, no hard efforts – heck, no medium effort.
– Spin. You’re looking to move your legs around in circles, almost like there is no chain on the bike.
– The idea is to get your body moving, flush the systems out, and speed your recovery.
– Just get out on the road and spin aimlessly. At a certain point, your legs suddenly feel better.
– As soon as that happens, turn around, go home, eat, stretch, and put your legs up.
Enjoy!
